Here are a few of Rose’s favourites for a perfect complexion this month:

Cleanser

RMK Cleansing Balm M is a rich cleansing balm, ideal for mature skin types. Enriched with Damascus Rose oil it helps to repair skin, soothing irritation, inflammation and breakouts and also soothing away stress and tension with its delicious scent. Additional ingredients such as grapeseed and avocado oil nourish and hydrate skin. With its rich, melting texture, this balm works to effectively remove all makeup, even mascara and leaves skin silky soft, perfectly cleansed and also firmed and super hydrated.

Rose says, “To me, cleansing is the most important element of any beauty regime. Often customers are looking to cover up existing problems with lots of different products. Using the right cleanser can give new life to the products you already have and make them work harder. If you’re working with a clean base the products will absorb and perform as they should. It’s my mission to get everyone double cleansing!”

Face Cream

Charlotte’s Magic Cream is a secret mix of patented anti-age ingredients, a hyaluronic acid booster plus floral extracts that lift and transform tired skin in an instant! Think of a wilting flower that’s just been watered – skin is flooded with moisture for a glowing complexion in a flash, no matter how dehydrated or lacklustre your skin may look.

Rose says, “It’s amazing to have Charlotte Tilbury in store. Her tried and tested products are a go-to for anyone wanting to achieve a beautiful look in minutes. This product contains hydrologic acid, a massively sought after ingredient in the beauty world at the moment, that holds up to 100 times its own water. This cream is like a drink of water for your face!”

Foundation

Capture the glow of perfect looking skin with Giorgio Armani’s Luminous Silk Foundation, an oil-free hydrating fluid with exclusive Micro-fil™ technology. Its lightweight and silky texture glides on seamlessly for an all-day, buildable coverage. Find your perfect match among 21 available shades for all skin types.

Rose says, ‘This foundation really put Giorgio Armani on the map in the beauty stakes. It’s the number one choice for bridal make-up, as it doesn’t give any flashback in photographs and it doesn’t oxidise on the skin. Apply after a layer of universal ‘greige’ BB fluid with SPF 50/PA +++ to see the best results.”
